Manchester Orchestra
Don’t Speak
[Verse 1]
You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together
Always
I really feel
I'm losing my best friend
I can't believe
This is the end

[Pre-Chorus]
It looks as though you're letting go
I hope you know
If it's real, well, I really don't know

[Chorus]
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts

[Verse 2]
Our memories
They can be inviting
But some are altogether
Mighty, frightening
[Pre-Chorus]
As we die, both you and I
With my head in my hands I sit and cry
Just so you know I'm letting go
I'm letting go
If it's not real, well, I simply do not know

[Chorus]
So don't speak
I know just what you're saying
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts

[Bridge]
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Don't speak
I know just what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
So don't speak
I know what you're thinking
And I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
[Chorus]
Don't speak
'Cause I know what you're thinking
Well I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts

[Chorus]
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
So I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
'Cause I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts

[Bridge 2]
So don't speak
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
Don't speak
I know what you're thinking
I don't need your reasons
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
So hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
So hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
[Chorus]
So don't speak
I know what you're saying
So please stop explaining
Don't tell me 'cause it hurts
So hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
So hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling
Hush, hush, darling

[Outro]
You and me
We used to be together
Everyday together
Always
I really feel
As we die
Both you and I
With my head in my hands I will cry
